is are president????????????????????? I think you mean is our president. And people like you are able to vote????

Martini

Obama WAS elected by people just like Fred A. He is making a mess of America but Kobe is amazing…The Lakers will repeat and by the time he hangs ‘em up Kobe will be acknowledged as the most talented and successful player of all time. I would never dispute Jordan’s greatness, but even MJ never had as “complete” a game as KB. The range….the post up game…fuhgetaboutit.

This is from Jimmy Kimmel Live in June 2008.

Pinky

Being a politician, wouldn’t he have said Lebron was the best if Obama was talking to Cleveland? That guy is smart.

clips4life

if he said this, then we’re in a world of trouble.! maybe he shouldn’t be in the White house!

Get the fvck outta here! This site is 4 supportive Laker fans only! I’m talkin to bot o yu, you big fat negative dick of a celdick, and to the rotten clit for a nolife mucus clipshyt.

ribbone

Only young bucs say anyone other than Kobe is the best in the league. Real legends like Magic and Barkley, and legends like Doug Collins will say without hesitation Kobe is the best. It’s guys like loud mouth Steven A. Smith and other idiot commentators who says otherwise. Oh, and Shaq folks!!!!! Kobe’s the best hands down!!!!

kobe can play basketball, but he can’t play the basketball game–Basketball is a team game, it’s not one on five

BRANDON FOOTE

HE ARE NOT A BALL HOG

Josue

lol, kobe is the best right now but he wont win a championship… and obama needs to stop worrying about nba and college football and worry about our country

deion

wad wade wade wade

BRANDON FOOTE

KOBE KOBE KOBE KOBE ALL DAY

Bobo

Lebron would take kobe 1 on 1

BRANDON FOOTE

IF HE CAN BEAT HIM

Ray Brady

i cant believe ppl ..is that what Jordan deserve from u bastards..saying that Kobe is the best basketball player in the world by obama wont change the fact that Michael Jordan made is the best basketball player in the world and the best know athlete along with maradona..i cant believe u guys cant quit comparing Jordan and Kobe i mean the media did quit instead of giving credits to Kobe Bryant why don’t u give the credits to the nasty Lebron James,i mean his only 24 an his kicking ass,im not saying that lebron James its better than Jordan coz that will never happened…If you wanna know whose better u have to think this way..in 1993 Jordan won his championship before retiring,he missed 2 season 1994 and 1995 an the bulls never made it to the finals or playoffs again an they had 4 powerful players an the best coach Phil Jackson,when Jordan returned to the NBA at the end of the 1995 season he won 3 championships am he was kinda old,he was in kobes ages from now an he still did it..when Kobe won his 3 championship he had Oneal,now when Oneal left Kobe was nothing an he still have Paul gassol,Lamar Odom,Phil Jackson, lampard etc and when shaQ went to Miami heat he won a championship wade didn’t win it shaq did coz look at Dwayne wade now without shaq his nothing,kobe never won a nba mvp finals they were all taken by shaq..What im trying to say is that no marrow what happened in the nba even if a player makes 90points pergame an wins 10 championship he will never take jordans place.jordan was made by god to play this game thats all..i raise my case

Martini

Ray Brady your logic is only matched by your command of the language. Jordan didn’t win any championships by himself either. As you mentioned, he had the best coach in the game (some would say the best ever) and if memory serves, he played alongside Scottie Pippin, voted to the NBA’s “50th Anniversary…50 Greatest Players”. I’ll reserve judgment until Kobe reaches the end of his career. He may wind up with more rings and more points than Jordan. At that point, we can leave it up to popular opinion. I sincerely doubt that God has a rooting interest either way.

Short Dog

Kobe is the best ever.
Bottom line.

BRANDON FOOTE

THAT’S WHAT I’M TAKING ABOUT

KindSir

Wow Ray, you are a true idiot. So you’re saying if some player came into the league and was somehow able to average a WHOPPING 90 ppg, and while he was at it won 10 championships, that he would still not be as good as michael jordan? You jordan fans are so idiotic and delusional in your worship that it’s hilarious! 90 ppg and 10 championships, but you’re still not as good as jordan. HAHAHAHAHAHA thank you for that one!

Megaman

@ Ray Brady…
Obama was talking about the best player as of RIGHT NOW…NOT ALL TIME. Micheal is in his 40s he can’t play like he used to. You need a brain man.

@Josue
….Lakers are the champions so STFU. Stop hating…

http://bestbasketballplayeronearthfor2010 charles

kobe sucks I think that he needs kobe needs how to learn not to knock everybody down and lebron is the best basket ball player on earth.think before you say young man.

BRANDON FOOTE

YOU CAN’T ACTUALLY SAY SOME ONE ARE THE BEST PLAYER IF THEY HAVE NOT WON A NBA CHAMPIONSHIP

http://google.com/ Anonymous

Nevertheless, people have their own opinions so don't be rude about it like Charles here. Be kind and respectful of others opinions, don't go over the top with your words. Sure, you might think that Kobe really sucks and “Lebron James” is tha best… well nobody's perfect, get used of it!

truck evans

ok, its time for all you kobe delusional lovers to pull your head out and come back to reality….Jordan 13 full seasons with the bulls has 6 championships, 6 finals mvp’s, 6-0 in the finals, won 6 straight championships in his last 6 full seasons with the bulls…….kobe 13 full seasons with lakers has 4 championships, 1 FINALS MVP!!!!…I will say again 1 FINALS MVP!!!!, 4-2 in the finals, oh, and should i mention game 7 against the suns in 2006 he quit on his team. Jordan my ass you fools.

truck evans

oops my bad, jordan did all that in 12 full seasons not 13. even more impressive.

BRANDON FOOTE

KOBE BRYANT ARE THE BEST BASKETBALL PLAYER IN THE WORLD TODAY.FOR ONE HE WILL DEFEND YOUR BEST PLAYER.SECOND HE WILL ALSO SHOOT FROM THE PERIMETER.KOBE ALREADY HAS FOUR NBA TITLES AND COUNTING.SOME PEOPLE MIGHT SAY LEBRON JAMES ARE BETTER BECAUSE HE MORE ATHLETIC THAN KOBE AND MORE FASTER.BUT LEBRON SAID IT FROM HIS OWN MOUTH “KOBE BRYANT IS THE BEST BASKETBALL PLAYER IN THE WORLD TODAY.”
